I cannot accept any more entries!!!! Thank you for those who have entered, but I desperately need to get these cataloged so I can choose a winner! You'll find out who before the end of the night!
If you didn't get to comment or otherwise win, I apologize. I hope you win future contests on other blogs (or on mine! Look for one around the holidays).

Can You Figure Out What These Tweets are Referring To?
Prizes to those who are correct! I dunno... I'll send you an Archie comic or some yarn! Or juice! Or my group member is saying beer! Do you like beer?
Tweet 1) Hint: Literature
Puritan woman cheats on husband. Daughter is born. Woman forced to wear "A" as badge of public shame for refusing to reveal father.
Tweet 2) Hint: Stage
They fell in love. Their parents hated it, they killed themselves.
Tweet 3) Hint: Screen
Man with multiple personalities joins fight club. Acts as another person, imagines everything he can't be. Gets complicated, shoots self.
Rules: You have to get all three correct and post it to the comments. I will assign a random number to the posters with all three correct, and one lucky winner will get a prize (sorry, just discovered I can't mail beer). The prize will be a surprise!
Good luck!
Edit: If you're in my class, don't bother. I know who you are. You are automatically disqualified by reason of knowing the answers.

I'm being enabled...
My dad and stepmom are huge yarn store enablers. What I mean is, no matter how many times I may tell them "I'm over my yarn budget, and I don't need more yarn," they still encourage me to get some.
And me, being helpless in the face of tweed, cannot help but give in. I am the proud owner of 1050 yards of purple, worsted tweed. I'm making Brunello.
Of course, this is after I knit almost a foot of random, stockinette strip to make a too short poncho that I'd probably wear maybe once or twice. No, this is a much better decision. Thank goodness the Knitty First Fall Surprise came out when it did, because my gauge is perfect and I have plenty of yardage.
I think I'll cast on right away!
